I've asked 4 of my den parents face to face(the ones I thought best suited) at the beginning of this year when my other leaders quit. They all said no for their own different reasons. So after that I just gave up asking. Same way the CM asked me to be ACM last year and I said no.

I haven't been able to get another parent to commit and sign on as an official leader. Now next year our CM is leaving at the crossing over when his youngest son crosses over. We
